Adams, Arthur Curtis
b. Oct. 12,1977 d. Aug. 25, 2017




Arthur Adams had stayed behind in Rockport to board up homes in the area and was hoping to leave before the storm made landfall, which it later did as a Category 4 hurricane with wind speeds of about 130 mph. When Christi and the couple's son left the day before to take shelter with family, Arthur let them know he was hoping to borrow a truck to evacuate on Friday. That did not happen. "He said, 'I'm going to be fine,' " Christi Adams said. "We just can't believe he's gone," she said. "It's just a terrible tragedy."

Christi Adams said she and Arthur had been together for nearly 18 years. The couple were married by common-law, and Christi went by Arthur's last name, though her legal last name is "Rhodes." They planned to have a commitment ceremony on their 20th anniversary, she added. He leaves behind his wife and five children.

After a mandatory evacuation was issued on Aug. 24 for Rockport and the surrounding area, Arthur told Christi and their son to head to San Antonio to stay with another son, Josh, and his family. After learning that Arthur was unable to find transportation out of Rockport, Christi Adams said the family offered to turn around to go get him. Arthur refused, citing the heavy traffic north from the coastal areas, she said. Arthur was the first victim of hurricane Harvey. His parents were Curtis Henry Adams and Cathy Jean Stinson.

Delgado, Noah
b. Sept. 2008, Sept. 3, 2017



An 8-year-old boy died of an asthma attack after Hurricane Harvey after he couldn’t get treatment in time, according to his family.His mother, Tina Galan, used Noah’s inhaler to try to calm the attack but to no avail. Galan said that her repeated calls to 911 went unanswered as authorities fielded thousands of calls during the deadly storm. “I went outside with him to try and get him some air, thinking it would help. I thought, because the power was out, maybe it was too stuffy inside,” Galan told the New York Post. Once outside, however, she realized Noah wasn’t breathing. “I was doing CPR, and trying to get him to inhale the medicine, and the air, trying to get him to inhale anything at all,” Galan told the paper. A stranger in a truck passing by their home reportedly stopped and picked them up and began driving to the hospital. On the way, they spotted an ambulance, which took them the rest of the way, reports said. While receiving CPR, one of Noah's lungs collapsed, the family’s GoFundMe said. Noah was life-flighted from North Cypress Medical Center to Texas Children's Hospital, but there was no room on the helicopter for Noah's mom so a friend drove her to the hospital, she said. Galan got stuck in the floods along the way but the National Guard assisted them. Once she arrived at the hospital, doctors told her Noah's diagnosis looked grim. Even if he lived, he’d be brain dead, they told her. Noah was in a coma and on life support for three days before he died. Noah Delgado, who was just one week shy of his ninth birthday, was in his Houston home last Monday when he was stricken with a severe asthma attack, reports said.“Noah was loving and energetic, and lit up the room with his presence," he family wrote on the fundraiser."He was loved by all of his teachers and friends. He was a brave young man and loved a challenge. He loved playing video games, watching scary movies, home cooked meals and Pokemon.”

Guillen, Alonso
b. 1986 d. Aug. 30, 2017




Alonso Guillen, a 31-year-old disc jockey from Lufkin, disappeared on Wednesday around midnight along with two friends after their boat hit the bridge over the creek and capsized. One of them was rescued after clinging to a tree in the rushing water, but days later, after the rains let up and the creek level receded, Guillen and Tomas Carreon Jr. were still missing. Searchers spotted Carreon's body floating down the wide, swift-moving creek on Friday around 1 p.m. On Sunday afternoon, Guillen's body floated past a sandy berm where family members had been keeping watch for days, staring out at the murky water. A relative dove in and pulled him to the shoulder of the creek until they were able to bring a boat over to get him onto shore. Guillen's father, Jesus Guillen, said he'd asked his son not to try and rescue people in the storm, but he insisted, saying he wanted to help people. He cried and prayed on Sunday afternoon as they pulled his son's body from the water. "Thank you, God," he said, "for the time I had with him." The recovery of his body brings the number of people who have died or are feared dead from Harvey to nearly 60, and officials warn that more could be found. Guillen, who was born in Piedras Negras, Mexico, and moved to Lufkin as a teenager, headed south with his friends toward Houston after Hurricane Harvey, towing a borrowed boat. They were near Interstate 45 and Beltway 8 and trying to reach an apartment complex when they hit the bridge, relatives said. Alonso Guillen was a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which temporarily lifted the threat of deportation for immigrants brought to the U.S. before they were 16, family members said. His father is a lawful permanent, but his mother is still in the application process for legal status. Reached at her home in Piedras Negras, Mexico, across the border from Eagle Pass, Rita Ruiz de Guillen, 62, said she is heartbroken. "I've lost a great son, you have no idea," she said, weeping softly. "I'm asking God to give me strength." She said she hoped U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials would take pity and grant her a humanitarian visa so that she could come to Houston and bury her son, but she was turned back at the border. "When we are with God, there are no borders," she said. "Man made borders on this earth."

Pasek, Andrew Joseph
b. Dec. 6 1991 d. Aug. 29,2017

Andrew was electrocuted while trying to rescue his sister's cat in her flooded house. He was just in two feet of water when power leaked out of a lamp pole. The shock paralyzed him and he fell putting his hand on the pole. He was shocked and drowned. No rescue attempt could be made until power was turned off to the subdivision. He is survived by his mother Jodell Pasek who wants to warn people about the dangers in flood waters with live power. His parents are Albin Joseph Pasek and Ann Ajodell Tamborello.

Andrew Pasek, 25, was always bringing home stray animals. There was Mali the puppy, his mother recalled, a tabby he called Blu and a Tibetan spaniel named Coco.

So it surprised no one that on Tuesday, Andrew set out to retrieve his sister Alyssa’s cat, D’Artagnan, who had been left behind as the floodwaters rose in Houston.

Andrew drove to the home with his childhood friend, Sean Stuart, and they began wading through several feet of water toward his sister’s two-story house.

Suddenly, the two felt the jolt of an electrical current in the water, said Andrew’s mother, JoDell Pasek.

“Years ago, Andrew had had an accident and broken his ankle severely, and he had plates and pins in his ankle,” she said. “All of that electricity started going to everything in his ankle and he started jumping around.”

Andrew fell into a mailbox on a metal post. “He told Sean, ‘Get away from me, I’m dying,’” Ms. Pasek said, through tears. “He knew immediately that if Sean touched him, he would be electrocuted too.”

Officials in Harris County attributed his death to accidental electrocution, the ninth confirmed storm death in the county.

Sean’s mother called Ms. Pasek to tell her what had happened. “I get that phone call, my son is no longer alive,” she said. “I just started screaming. We’ve been friends since the kids were in kindergarten, so I know it was the hardest thing she had to do.”

Gathered at home in Houston, Andrew’s family was left wondering if they could have stopped him from trying to rescue D’Artagnan.

“We’ve all decided that no matter what we would have said, he would have gone anyway,” Ms. Pasek said. “That was just his nature.”

Shocked by underwater electrical wire and drowned. He was trying to rescue his sister's cat. Funeral September 2, 2017.
